Heybrook Lookout

Perched atop a ridge at 1,700 feet, Heybrook Lookout offers a truly unique Pacific Northwest experience. This federal site is defined by its historic fire lookout tower, which rises 67 feet above the terrain to provide unparalleled panoramic views of the surrounding glacial peaks and the lush valley floor below. The area is steeped in history, tracing its roots back to the original 1925 tent platform and the subsequent 1932 log tower that once housed forest rangers.

This is a primitive camping destination managed by the USFS, making it ideal for self-sufficient adventurers looking to immerse themselves in nature. Facilities are basic, featuring vault toilets and picnic tables to support your stay. Because there are no hookups available, it is best suited for tent campers or those in smaller RVs who are comfortable with a rugged, off-the-grid experience.

Visitors can take advantage of the local hiking trails that weave through the scenic ridgeline. Whether you are looking to explore the history of the lookout or simply want a quiet place to camp under the Washington sky, Heybrook provides a memorable, year-round escape into the wilderness.
